Previously in interrupt handling tasklet, iwlwifi driver only clear/ack
those interrupts that are enabled by the driver through inta_mask.
If the hardware generates unattended interrupts, driver will not ack them,
defeating the interrupt coalescing feature. This results in high number
of interrupts per second and high CPU utilization.

This patch addresses this issue by acking those unattended interrupts
in the tasklet. Local test showed an order of magnitude improvement
in terms of the number of interrupts without sacrificing networking
throughput. This is a workaround for hardware issue.

When I initially stumbled upon sequence number problems with PAE frames
in ath9k, I submitted a patch to remove all special cases for PAE
frames and let them go through the normal transmit path.
Out of concern about crypto incompatibility issues, this change was
merged instead:

commit 6c8afef5
Author: Sujith <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com>
Date:   Tue Feb 9 10:07:00 2010 +0530

    ath9k: Fix sequence numbers for PAE frames

After a lot of testing, I'm able to reliably trigger a driver crash on
rekeying with current versions with this change in place.
It seems that the driver does not support sending out regular MPDUs with
the same TID while an A-MPDU session is active.
This leads to duplicate entries in the TID Tx buffer, which hits the
following BUG_ON in ath_tx_addto_baw():

    index  = ATH_BA_INDEX(tid->seq_start, bf->bf_seqno);
    cindex = (tid->baw_head + index) & (ATH_TID_MAX_BUFS - 1);

    BUG_ON(tid->tx_buf[cindex] != NULL);

I believe until we actually have a reproducible case of an
incompatibility with another AP using no PAE special cases, we should
simply get rid of this mess.

This patch completely fixes my crash issues in STA mode and makes it
stay connected without throughput drops or connectivity issues even
when the AP is configured to a very short group rekey interval.

I/Q calibration was completely broken, resulting in a high number of CRC errors
on received packets. before i could see around 10% to 20% CRC errors, with this
patch they are between 0% and 3%.

1.) the removal of the mask in commit "ath5k: Fix I/Q calibration
(f1cf2dbd)" resulted in no mask beeing used
when writing the I/Q values into the register. additional errors in the
calculation of the values (see 2.) resulted too high numbers, exceeding the
masks, so wrong values like 0xfffffffe were written. to be safe we should
always use the bitmask when writing parts of a register.

2.) using a (s32) cast for q_coff is a wrong conversion to signed, since we
convert to a signed value later by substracting 128. this resulted in too low
numbers for Q many times, which were limited to -16 by the boundary check later
on.

3.) checked everything against the HAL sources and took over comments and minor
optimizations from there.

4.) we can't use ENABLE_BITS when we want to write a number (the number can
contain zeros). also always write the correction values first and set ENABLE
bit last, like the HAL does.

when using a fixed antenna we should use the antenna number in all tx
descriptors, otherwise the hardware will sometimes send the frame out on the
other antenna. it seems like the hardware does not always respect the default
antenna and diversity settings (esp.  AR5K_STA_ID1_DEFAULT_ANTENNA).

also i would like to note that antenna diversity does not always work correctly
on 5414 (at least) when only one antenna is connected: for example all frames
might be received on antenna A but still the HW tries to send on antenna B some
times, causing packet loss.

this is both verified with the antenna statistics output of the previous patch
and a spectrum analyzer.

Recent patch "iwlwifi: move 3945 clip groups to 3945 data" exposed a memory
corruption problem. When initializing the clip groups the code was
mistakenly using the iwlagn rate count, not the 3945 rate count. This
resulted in more memory being written than was allocated.

"iwlwifi: move 3945 clip groups to 3945 data" moved the location where the
clip groups are stored and the impact is now severe in that the number of
configured TX queues is modified. Previously the
"temperature" field was overwritten, which did not seem to affect the
operation.

Fix this one instance where wrong rate count was used. I also noticed one
more location where the iwlagn rate count was used to index an iwl3945
array, fix this. I also modified one location that modified the iwlagn rate
count to obtain the iwl3945 rate count ... just use the iwl3945 rate count
directly.

Handling HT configuration changes involved setting the channel
with the new HT parameters and then issuing a rate_update()
notification to the driver.

This behavior changed after the off-channel changes. Now, the channel
is not updated with the new HT params in enable_ht() - instead, it
is now done when the scan work terminates. This results in the driver
depending on stale information, defaulting to non-HT mode always.

Fix this by passing the new channel type to the driver.

At the wireless summit in Portland we discussed a way of
loading firmware asynchronously from ->probe() before
registration to mac80211, in order to register with the
wireless subsystems with complete information in cases
where firmware is required to know parameters.

This is not yet the case in iwlwifi, but for some new
features we're working on it will be the case since
those will only be supported by new firmware images.

Hence, to start with, convert iwlwifi to load firmware
asynchronously from probe, unbinding the device when
firmware loading fails, and only registering with the
wireless subsystems after firmware has been loaded
successfully.

Future patches will hook into this to register the
new firmware capabilities, depending on the firmware
API version.

bit set. This has been recently observed for 6050 cards where
for even with huge bit set few commands were not properly allocated
memory with the command overwriting the buffer allocated for it..
Also add a check to see if command size exceeds the
maximum allowable size.

This reverts commit 1db5950f.

The goal of "iwlwifi: Monitor and recover the aggregation TX flow failure"
is to first detect when data transmission stalls and then to recover from
this situation with a reset of the radio or the firmware, depending on how
bad the transmission failures are.

Unfortunately we have found that this change causes excessive resets with
its current detection algorithm. It also performs its recovery action when
none is really needed, like when we are not associated.

Revert this change until the issues have been addressed.

This converts mwl8k to use the new station
add/remove callbacks instead of using the
old sta_notify callback.

The new callbacks can sleep, so a lot of
code can be removed now.

Check the frame control for ieee80211_is_data_qos() is true before
counting the number of tfds can be free, the tfds_in_queue only
increment when ieee80211_is_data_qos() is true before transmit; so it
should only decrement if the type match.

Remove ieee80211_is_data_qos check for frame_ctrl in tx_resp to avoid
invalid information pass from uCode.

When receive reply_tx and ready to decrement the count for number of
tfds in queue, do error checking to prevent error condition and
tfds_in_queue become negative number.
